About 15 weeks ago, I took Theatre 2100 at OSU as a GE credit course. My major was Biology. I had taken Theatre 100 in 1998 and received a D. “Fresh Start” rule erased that upon my return. I was apprehensive about repeating this course. However after taking it and reflecting on where I began, I can honestly say this course has changed me.

Specifically, Jordan conducted the method by using fast-paced rhyming recitations with subtle twists into the way certain lines were said. As a result, the spoken recitation ended sounding like singing that made its way into the spoken verse. The method of song delivery can be observed from the lyrics of the song: Pettin ' and Pokin.’ Now this is the story of…

Welcome to our Shabbat morning service and to my Bar Mitzvah! I would like to thank everyone for attending my Bar Mitzvah, especially my family who came here from all over, including Hawaii and the East coast. Becoming a Bar Mitzvah only happens once in a lifetime and I’m glad you (point at a person), and you (point at a person), and all of you (point all around) could be here to celebrate with me!

As I stepped through the door into the foyer of the Islamic Foundation, I was struck first by how incredibly out of place I felt. I had arrived in time for the afternoon prayer, the Asr, and found myself surrounded by the hustle of those finding a place to sit and wait for the service to begin. Unsure of where I needed to be, I inquired and was directed to the back of the prayer room to sit and observe the proceedings. As both members of the community and fellow classmates began to take their…

The life of a Medieval Nun was really hard. Becoming one was a commitment for life. The life of a Medieval nun appealed to many different kinds of women in the Middle Ages. During the middle ages, women were usually not well educated. Only some nuns were taught to read and write.

In a way, sacred music was restricted to monotonic tunes, where the emphasis lays on the meaning of the words, frequent recitations on a single note, and the monophonic texture of the chant. On the contrary, the secular music in the Middle Ages, performed by the troubadours, widely utilized available musical instruments for accompaniment and had clearly defined rhythm.…

and engages the reader in the story. Furthermore, though a tad subtle, this diction is remarkably prominent within Lennie’s language to indicate his mental disabilities. This includes stating the obvious, added contractions within his speech, and recitation of words (“‘They run us outa Weed,’ he exploded triumphantly.”). By including this, Steinbeck creates a feeling of sympathy for Lennie throughout the story as his handicap prevents him speaking clearly (as does the tongue of those around him)…
